How to train a LoRA on your face or style

Black belt· Pro1:26 videoUses LoRA Trainer

Teach the AI your face or your style from one photo or a folder of images, then use it in any prompt.

You need: One photo, or 10 to 20 photos of the same face or style.

Step by step

  1. Choose a training route

    Fast Trainer runs in about two minutes. Zip upload brings an image collection you already have. You can also upload up to 30 single images.

  2. Start from one photo if that is all you have

    The single-image option makes 11 portrait variations from one photo and trains on those.

  3. Or upload 10 to 20 images

    Captions are written for you. Variety wins: different angles, light and backgrounds teach the model what stays the same.

  4. Find it in your Library

    Open Library, then LoRAs. Each one shows its trigger word and a Create button.

  5. Use it in a prompt

    In Qwen Image 2.1, open Add LoRA under the prompt, browse your LoRAs and pick yours. Then write the scene.

Why it works

  • Mixed angles and lighting make a flexible LoRA. Twenty near-identical selfies make a stiff one.
  • A LoRA is for a look you reuse constantly. For a recurring cast in films, a saved character is faster.

Your practice task

Train a style LoRA from 15 of your own photos and use it on a subject you never shot.
